Part Built Xe Tiger Super Cat

Hi all due to a change in circumstances it's now time to part with my part built Tiger.
I bought the kit Brand New from Chester Sports Car.
I have the log book and chassis plate from the doner Sierra and pictures to back it up, the Tiger should be put on an age related plate which would be a J Plate.
The Tiger is Running a Vauxhall Red Top and as many of you will know these cars either come with a Ford Zetec or Pinto fitted.
The Tiger has many new parts or remanufactered parts.
The Tiger is around 80% built, it runs and drives as I've driven it up the drive.
Now for the bits that every 1 wants to know

Engine:
The Engine is a Vauxhall RedTop (2L 16valve), I've got the paper work from Vauxhall stating that the engine was built in 1988.
The Engine runs and sounds amazing running a set of R1 Bike Carbs and using MegaJolt Lite.
The Engine was rebuilt with all new parts which I have reciepts and pics to show.
The Exhaust manifold is a SBD 4-1 with a good Stainless Canon fitted

Transmission:
The Gearbox is a Sierra Type 9 5 Speed using a Race 0 Degree Bellhousing.
The Clutch is a Rover Sd1 friction plate and a Vauxhall pressure plate.
The Gear Mechanism is a Rally Design Remote job and a modified gear stick for quick shift.
The Prop has been shortened and balanced by Congelton Propshafts.

Brakes:
The Front Brakes are Re manufactured Sierra 1's with new disc and pads.
The Rear Brakes are new with new Shoes and Cylinders.
The Master Cylinder is a Mondeo 1 as the Engine has been moved back a few inches and the Sierra 1 wouldn't fit.

Interior:
The Seats are Standard Tiger 1's which in my eyes could do with being replaced.
The Dash is very simple which is just a Digital AceWell 1, every thing is wired up to it and works really good.
There is the side panels and carpet and the new steering wheel still to go on the car.

Wheels:
The wheels and tyres are standard Sierra steels which will need to go for some Alloys.

I don't think I've missed much but if you need any more info please get in touch and I'll try to answer your questions.
The Tiger is based in Cheshire and is stored in a well lit garage.
You can get in touch through PM or phone on: 07841410085
Now the Price, I'm after £3700ono for the Tiger which I think is a good price as just the Basic kit cost more than that.
